To be cursed with a view of the future. That is torture indeed.
Past is bad enough. But a window into the future!
By the way, what is future?
Stated differently, does future exist.

"...does future exist."

The future exists, but such a short future it is. Time does have an end, and we are living in the end times. I look forward to nothing in the future as far as this world is concerned. My thoughts lie with the afterlife, because that is eternity.

rain. I get rather philosophical at times. Especially when things aren't too good. And so I asked myself, given the bleak present, what does future hold for me? Of course I have no idea. All I know is, things can't get any better! So it is downhill, all the way. Afterlife. Would you like to add some more on that topic. I would very much like to hear about that.

How are you doing? Planned your vacation yet?

Loner, sorry to get back to you so late. My computer crashed a few days ago. I was not a very happy camper.
My vacation is in July. I'm going to take a couple of days vacation before that, though, because I'm getting burned out at work.

The Tree

The tree was fine when I saw it last time. I don't quite recollect how long ago that was. I do recollect the tree was fine. Now I see it again. All shrivelled up, The glorious leaves gone, So too the pride. It looks old, Maybe feels old, wasted, useless What happened to you, old friend? What bolt of destiny struck you down. I doubt you will ever hold that head up again Against the sky, against the wind, against time. But don't you worry. We are with you. Shrunk, shrivelled, shaken down No matter. We are with you.

Today was not particularly bad as days go. I had my usual share of being alone. Deep in the madding crowd. Sometimes I wonder who among the multitude teeming around me are actually of my special category - loners. We don't tell each other you see. And when we do tell, we use odd names, hmm. like loner2. My other life, the one everyone assumes is my real one, went off as usual. The same old crowd. The same old nonsense uttered all around. Everyone pretending to be the best guy or gal on the planet. Man, it is quaint. Oh, I forgot to mention this one. I need to tell about my dreams. Some people would call them nightmares. So brace yourself for some weird posts. Most of them are going to be disjointed, 'cause like most people I don't remember the dreams in full. But unlike Plato, I do know they are dreams. Maybe they ARE dreams. In fact I believe they are dreams. Just dreams.

Maybe loneliness implies detachment. This is not what an old comment on this blog says. It says loners are basically asocial beings with some hidden grudge in thier minds. I don't think so. May be there are loners of that version out there. But detachment is the phrase that has been on my mind for some days now. The true meaning of detachment is way beyond me. Embracing emotions, experiences. I don't know. May there is something in that.
